[justiceamberheard]

do you know the source for ambers ex-gf who came out to say amber didn't abuse her? the name I forget. its the story where amber was supposedly arrested for punching her or something like that?

[postmodern-neon-marxist]

let's break this down.

All we know about Depp is that he had a substance addiction

we also know that he has a history of violent outbursts, some of which he has gotten in legal trouble for. we also know that he's a pedophile who groomed 17-year-old winona ryder and tried to get her parents to let him marry her. we also know that he's been abusive around multiple exes, fx throwing bottles at ellen barkin. we also know that he fantasized about murdering and then raping heard. we also know he's besties with a whole host of other abusers such as marilyn manson and harvey weinstein. etc.

and his being violent was based only on Amber's testimony

apart from the multiple known cases of depp's violence outside his relationship with heard, there were also multiple witnesses in the virginia trial who saw depp's aggression and/or the injuries he inflicted, and depp confessed to physical violence multiple times.

You're also ignoring how Depp is literally a victim of domestic abuse.

when he was a kid, yeah. that doesn't excuse him going on to perpetrate it on a completely unrelated person.

Amber herself admitted to being violent with him

heard admitted to eventually starting to defend herself and fight back. this is not a bad thing.

She knew no one would believe him.

she assumed nobody would believe him because he was flagrantly lying and she had plenty of evidence.

And that proof that he "is a violent man" is based on a recording of him having just lost his mother, who meant more than entire world to him, and was grieving. He wasn't being violent towards Amber. He was being self-destructive.

had he also "just lost his mother" when he did the exact same thing to kate moss? no. it's not a grief response, it's a pattern of abusive behavior.

Despite his abuser being called out on lies on how she insisted she covered bruises using make up that literally did not even exist yet, but didn't even claim it was a mistake?

this is straightforwardly a lie.

Despite his abuser having a documented history of abuse?

tasya van ree has very clearly disagreed with this idea

Sorry, but between the man who is being backed by all his exes AND his kids saying he was never abusive

ellen barkin literally testified against him. incidentally, if you want to bring his kids into it, it should also be mentioned that depp lied to authorities to protect a 23-year-old man who was preying on 15-year-old lily-rose.

and the woman who was found to have abused her ex and whose entourage acknowledge she has violent tendencies, was caught in several lies, literally admitted to hitting the man

all of this is darvo. depp did these things.

and mocking the fact no one would believe a man could be victim of domestic abuse

this is a lie spread by intentionally mistranscribed audio.

I'm gonna automatically think the woman is lying through her damn teeth.

of course. you always do.

UR "Not all men, you're right, my pedro pascal wouldn't do that" or whoever, PISSES ME OFF.

And then, a victim appears, and you don't believe them, bc of some parasocial relationship with a man you don't know - i'm not saying pedro is an abuser, but he could be.

You use some incel statement and agree with it, for a man. My fucking god, you're already sexually harassing Pedro Pascal and know for your comic effect, you side with incels in a hurting way for every fucking one.

Pedro is a sweetheart, but you guys have this " Depp is hot and cute the ppl arez lying he wouldn't do that" even tho he's proved violent man, so obviously i don't trust no one to make that kind of "humor" bc we know what side you take when someone comes forward.

We can love Pedro without this non sense ! I love him, he's a kind man, a sweet soul, but the thing we don't really know him and we can't pretend that this man his perfection and would never hurt a fly; we don't know him.

The Johnny Depp / Amber Heard allegations,

Told to the best of my ability.

Bold, colored links are the most relevant, most informative court documents. Colored links are to court documents. All other links are to related articles/videos.

If I’ve missed anything you feel is important, please let me know.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard met on the set of The Rum Diary in 2009/2010.

June 19, 2012: It is made official that Johnny Depp has split with his significant other of 14 years, Vanessa Paradis.

June, 2012: Depp and Heard go public with their relationship.

January, 2013: Depp and Heard separate. Heard reportedly engages in a relationship with Marie de Villepin.

April 27, 2013: Depp and Heard seen holding hands at a Rolling Stones concert, their first public appearance together since the split.

2013: Heard petitioned to change her legal name back to ‘Heard’ from ‘van Ree’, the name she shared with her partner of five years Tasya van Ree. It was granted the following year.

March 31, 2014: Depp confirms engagement to Heard.

May 23, 2016: Amber Heard files for divorce citing irreconcilable differences and asks for spousal support. The filing followed the death of Depp’s mother, who passed away three days prior.

On May 27, 2016, she filed for and was granted a temporary domestic violence restraining order against Depp. Note: She appears at the court with bruises on her face, which in the filing she notes is from Depp hitting her with his iPhone. Also note: The judge ordered Depp to stay at least 100 yards away from Heard, but denied her request that he attend anger management courses and steer clear of her pet Yorkshire terrier Pistol based on “insufficient evidence”.

Her court filing details that Depp was abusive through the whole four-year relationship and that he had a substance abuse problem. (In addition there are witnesses sworn in her statement: Raquel Pennington, their neighbor who details her recollection of the night she witnessed and Tillet (iO) Wright, a mutual friend on the phone with the couple during said night.)

Sidenote: linked here are both Wright’s defense of Heard and Doug Stanhope’s defense of Depp. Both are powerful essays that tell very different stories. For shorter opinions shared by co-workers, friends, and strangers to the couple, this article includes nine.

May 21, 2016: Included in Heard’s submited photos were those supposedly taken during the May 21st incident. Photos include that of her abuse and and Depp’s rampage through the house. (We don’t have pictures of his rampage officially taken from the court filings, but the reference to them states that he picked up a ‘magnum bottle of champagne’ and used it as a baseball bat to 'smash everything he could’.) Newer photos show the suposed destruction he wreaked on Heard’s studio.

LAPD and NYPD confirm the calls to them exist (calls made by Wright at the request of Heard), but the responding LAPD officers found no evidence of a crime. At the time, Heard claimed it was a verbal dispute, and that Depp wasn’t even at the scene of the crime (which, by this point, he was not). Note: LAPD Sgt. Marlon Marrache stated that 'A crime did not occur so the officers left the scene and left a business card’, Marrache added that if there had been any signs of abuse, police would still have conducted an investigation even if Heard had not wanted to press charges.

Officer Melissa Saenz stated that Heard was crying but that she did not see any marks, bruises, swelling or signs of injury on her face. She also testified to inspecting the apartment and finding no signs of shattered glass or broken items. Saenz said Heard repeatedly "shook her head" in response to questions and did not want to talk, and that she had no probable cause to believe a crime had been committed. Officer Tyler Hadden shared similar testimony.

More recent statements made by Depp’s team assert that photos provided by Heard alledging abuse or destruction of property were provided as hardcopies, without the original images nor the associated metadata. Note: this makes it impossible to prove the images were taken when Heard and Pennington claimed them to be, which would have been before the arrival of LAPD officers Saenz and Hadden.

An analysis of the testimonies was performed by YouTuber Incredibley Average by means of a (currenty?) three part video series. He points out potential inconsistencies, but beyond that provides a thorough layout of the penthouses where the incident occurred. If as nothing more than a visual aide, Questions you should be asking (part 1) and (part 2) are worth a watch. His first video, the lies not talked about, fucuses on the inconsistency within Wright’s claims and examines photos of Heard taken within the next few weeks of one highly publicized ‘severe incident’ that allegedly occurred on December 15th of 2015 where she ‘truly feared for [her] life’. His newest video addressed contradictions in Haerd’s April of 2019 filings.

The incident of December 15, 2015 in question detailed Heard as having a ‘cut and bruised lip, a swollen eye and a chunk of hair missing from the top of her head’ soon after ‘an intoxicated Johnny tried to suffocate her with a pillow’. This allegedly occurred the day before her appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden on the 16th.

(Warning: the linked video contains profanity and violent behavior.) A video emerged of Depp slamming cabinets and throwing a wine glass into a sink in his and Heard’s shared home. TMZ published the video on August 12th of 2016, and was said to have been filmed (by Heard on a mobile phone) before the May 21st incident. Note: it has been suspect that the video was filmed the day after Depp discovered he had lost millions to his now-former management. Also note: the video was acknowledged as “likely inadmissible in court”, based on it being highly edited in nature and excluding a beginning to the argument. It has been suggested that Heard may have encouraged Depp’s anger, citing his comment of “you wanna see crazy? I’ll give you f—king crazy” as reason to believe Heard had called him crazy moments before.

“The finger incident” has been traced back to a finger injury in 2015. The injury in question stopped the filming of Pirates for a while. On May 31st of 2016, a source informed ET Online that Depp’s injury occurred during a dispute with Heard. By August, the story developed through Heard’s court documents (though these are not public) to claim that Depp cut his finger and then dipped it in blue paint to write the message “Starring Billy Bob” and “Easy Amber” because he believed Heard was cheating on him with her former co-star, Billy Bob Thornton. Photos of these messages and his finger are part of Amber’s testimony, and included in the link above.

March 1, 2019: Depp has always denied the occurance of such extravagant accusations on his part; in new documents from Depp’s defamation lawsuit against Heard (from March 1st, 2019) he claims that the finger injury was a result of Heard throwing a ‘glass vodka bottle at Mr. Depp – one of many projectiles that she launched at him in this and other instances’, the bottle shattering ‘as it came into contact with Mr. Depp’s hand, and the broken glass and impact severed and shattered Mr. Depp’s finger’.

August, 2018: In the court documents obtained by PEOPLE in August of 2018, Depp claimed Heard ‘assaulted him after he arrived almost two hours late to [her] 30th birthday dinner on April 21, 2016. The document claims Depp, who was ‘not drunk or high on drugs,’ was reading in bed when Heard, who had been drinking, allegedly became ‘aggressive and violent, punching him twice in the face.” This was described in paragraph 30 (page 10) of this particular filing, and images have since come forward (as of March, 2019) of bruising supposedly from the incident.

Paragraph 28 asserts that Heard has admitted to the physical abuse of Depp while under oath. Note: Depp has never admitted to any form of abuse on Heard in the eyes of the court; at least not in documents readily online.

On April 27th of 2018, Dan Wootton published an article titled How can J.K. Rowling be ‘genuinely happy’ casting wife-beater Johnny Depp in the new Fantastic Beasts film? through The Sun. The article’s title has since been changed.

On June 4th of 2018, Depp sued The Sun for libel (£200,000 in addition to £10,528 in legal fees) through its publishing company, News Group Newspapers Limited (NGNL), alongside Wootton himself. Because the suit is taking place in the UK, NHNL needs to prove their assertions were true rather than Depp proving they were false.

On July 11th of 2018, NGNL filed their defense.

On January 22nd of 2019, Depp made his first witness statement against NGNL and Wootton. Paragraph 12 cites evidence Depp intends to use if the event goes to trial. The following sections describe the incident from May 21, 2016, citing the witness declarations of Sean Bett and Jerry Judge, Depp’s two active bodyguards at the time. Both state Depp never came within 10/20 feet of Heard during the incident. The couple’s then-neighbor, Isaac Barunch, also declared seeing Heard on multiple occasions between May 22nd and May 27th without any signs of mark or injury. This was followed by two declarations of their building employees, both attesting that Heard had no injuries. One, Trinity Esparza, stated that there were no visible injuries until six days after the alleged ‘wifebeating’. Also listed is security camera footage of Heard in their building on May 24, 2016.

Paragraphs 13-25 clarify that the divorce agreement prohibited either party (Heard or Depp) from pursuing libel, slander, or defamation against one another for anything that took place before August 16, 2016. It does not, by any means, restrict Heard from participating in legal proceedings if she is to be summoned. Paragraphs 26-28 state that a release from the confidentiality agreement was sought and subsequently denied on the basis of its irrelevance/lack of necessity.

On August 15th of 2016, a $7 million divorce settlement was reached. With this, Heard dismissed allegations that Depp had ever physically abused her and retracted her request for a permenant restraining order. Heard dismissed the case with prejudice, which means she cannot re-file it at a future time. The following is the joint statement made by the pair:

“Our relationship was intensely passionate and at times volatile, but always bound by love.

“Neither party has made false accusations for financial gain. There was never any intent of physical or emotional harm.

“Amber wishes the best for Johnny in the future. Amber will be donating financial proceeds from the divorce to a charity. There will be no further public statements about this matter.”

Note: the wording is careful, and often picked apart by skeptics. No false accusations were made “for financial gain”, and there was never any “intent” of physical or emotional harm.

On August 18th of 2016, Heard announced her intention to donate the settlement money in its entirety: one half to American Civil Liberties Union, “with a particular focus to stop violence against women,” and the other half to the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. The Children's Hospital Los Angeles revealed in its 2017 annual report that Heard donated between $1 million and $5 million at some point during the July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017 fiscal year.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The following section is ongoing, and where I will add updates. Unrelated updates associated with Depp’s finances will be in a seperate location.

On April 11th of 2019, Heard responded asked a judge to dismiss the $50 million defamation lawsuit filed by Depp over the op-ed.

The video surveillance footage mentioned in Depp’s lawsuit (from May 25, 2016, three days after the alleged fight where Heard claims her publicized bruises occurred) is now public.

Depp’s team claims to be seeking accounts from Elon Musk and Heard’s associates, in searchof the truth.

Samantha McMillen, longtime stylist for Heard, testifies against ever seeing facial injuries after the actress claimed Depp beat her up.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The following section is in regards to both Heard and Depp’s past legal troubles.

Often referenced and perhaps most relevant is Heard’s past involvement with domestic abuse. On September 15th of 2009, Heard was booked for misdemeanor assault in fourth degree after she allegedly grabbed and struck then girlfriend Tasya van Ree’s arm in the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Heard spent the night in jail and appeared in court the following day, but the prosecutor declined to move forward with the case because the women both lived in California. In an audio recording of her trial, we hear the judge warn Heard that prosecutors could reconsider and refile within the 2-year statute of limitations.

Note: van Ree stated that the arresting officer, appeared ‘misogynistic’ and ‘homophobic’ once it became apparent that she and Heard were domestic partners and not friends. van Ree said that Heard was wrongfully accused and this incident blown out of proportion and is still friends with Heard. The officer in question, Beverly Leonard, who is herself a gay woman, insists an arrest was made because ‘an assault occurred’ and ‘the parties were in a domestic relationship’.

In 2016, Heard was prosecuted for illegally bringing her and Depp’s dogs into Australia. Her subsequent punishment was a one-month good behavior bond of $1,000, and the couple released an apology video for their negligence.

In 1989, Depp was arrested on suspicion of assault on a security guard in Vancouver, Canada. Note: This arrest was not domestic.

In 1994, Depp was arrested on criminal mischief charges after inflicting nearly $10,000 worth of damage to a hotel room. Note: This arrest was not domestic. Charges were dropped when Depp agreed to pay the $9,767 in damages.

In 1999, Depp was arrested after threatening paparazzi with a wooden plank while in London. Note: This arrest was not domestic.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The following secretion is in regards to relationship timelines. Rumored or spotted outtings that were never commented on by either party will be struck through.

Depp:

Lori A. Allison: 1983-1985. Note: “He would never lay a hand on a woman and isn't capable of hurting anyone. Lori [stated] Johnny never got physical with her during their relationship ... he never even screamed.” She called him a ‘soft person’ who is even kind to animals. Lori and Johnny, had a dog during their marriage and she argues that he was more loving with the pooch than most parents are to their kids. Lori and Johnny are still friends.

Sherilyn Fenn: 1985-1987.

Jennifer Grey: 1987.

Winona Ryder: 1988-1994. Note: “I can only speak from my own experience, which was wildly different than what is being said. He was never, never that way towards me. Never abusive at all towards me. I only know him as a really good, loving, caring guy who is very, very protective of the people that he loves. I wasn’t there. I don’t know what happened. I’m not calling anyone a liar. I’m just saying, it’s difficult and upsetting for me to wrap my head around it. Look, it was a long time ago, but we were together for four years, and it was a big relationship for me! Imagine if someone you dated when you were—I was 17 when I met him—was accused of that. It’s just shocking. I have never seen him be violent toward a person before.”

Traci Lords: 1990. Note: “He's the kind of guy that would be really sweet to a girl and bring her flowers, but still take a pee in the alley."

Tally Chanel: 1990-1991.

Juliette Lewis: 1993.

Tatjana Patitz: 1994.

Ellen Barkin: 1994.

Peggy Trentini: 1994.

Kate Moss: 1994-1998. Note: “There’s nobody that’s ever really been able to take care of me. Johnny did for a bit. I believed what he said. Like if I said, ‘What do I do?,’ he’d tell me. And that’s what I missed when I left. I really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust.”

Naomi Campbell: 1998.

Vanessa Paradis: 1998-2012. Note: “Johnny Depp is the father of my two children. He is a sensitive, loving and loved person, and I believe with all my heart, that these recent allegations being made are outrageous. In all the years I have known Johnny, he has never been physically abusive with me and this looks nothing like the man I lived with for 14 wonderful years.”

Christina Ricci: 1999.

Kristen StephensonPino: 2010.

Antoinette Kalaj: Aug-Sep 2010. Note: she has denied dating rumors.

Kiley Evans: 2011.

Robin Baum: 2011.

Julie Ellis: 2012.

Amber Heard: 2012-2016.

Ashley Olsen: Feb 2012.

Lisa Marie Presley: 2018-2019.

Heard:

Alejandro Monteverde: 2004-2005.

Valentino Lanus: 2005-2006.

Mark Wystrach: 2006-2007.

Sean Faris: 2007-2008.

Crispin Glover: 2007.

Austin Nichols: Oct-Dec 2007.

Tysa van Ree: 2008-2012. Note: “Amber is a brilliant, honest and beautiful woman and I have the utmost respect for her. We shared 5 wonderful years together and remain close to this day.”

Arthur Wybrands: Apr-Aug 2009.

Johnny Depp: 2012-2016.

Marie de Villepin: Jan 2013.

Elon Musk: 2016-2018. Note: It is Depp’s belief that this relationship began before his separation from Heard; both Heard and Musk have denied these claims. At the time of Musk’s initial break up with Heard in 2017, it was reportedly because “Amber can be very manipulative and selfish” and “he’d heard certain things about her behaviour that didn’t sit well with him”. Another sourse says the split was mutual and had to do with bad timing/busy schedules. Their final split in 2018 was said to be on good terms, the couple “both still caring deeply for each other”.

Sean Penn: March 2018.

Vito Schnabel: May 2018.

Andy Muschietti: March 2019-present.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The following secretion is in regards to other incidents less discussed.

On June 1st of 2016, Heard’s text messages to Depp’s assistant, Stephen Deuters, leaked and were published via ET Online. The messages were supposedly from the May 25th 2014. By June 2nd, Deuters had come forward with a statement claiming that the messages were doctored and that he knew of ‘no acts of abuse toward Amber at the hands of Johnny’.

On June 5th of 2016, Kevin Cohen, a computer forensic consultant, examined Heard’s phone backups and determined the messages to be authentic.

Depp has also accused Heard of soiling their bed after becoming angry with him for being late to a party in the Apil of 2016. Heard stated the excrement was left by Yorkshire terrier Boo, who has bowel problems, though witnesses say the turd in question was too large to have been Boo’s doing.

Also often referenced are two videos: the first is Heard beibg pranked by Depp and her father on ‘Overhaulin’ in the October of 2015. The second is of an encounter between Depp and Kate Winslet at the Palm Springs Film Festival in the January of 2015.
